Introduction
The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is widely recognised as a
reliable means of assessing the language ability of candidates who need to study or work
where English is the language of communication. These Practice Tests are designed to give
future IELTS candidates an idea of whether their English is at the required level.
IELTS is owned by three partners, the University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations,
the British Council and IDP Education Pty Limited (through its subsidiary company, IELTS
Australia Pty Limited). Further information on IELTS can be found on the IELTS website
(www.aoji.cn

Listening
This test consists of four sections, each with ten questions. The fi rst two sections are
concerned with social needs. The fi rst section is a conversation between two speakers and
the second section is a monologue. The fi nal two sections are concerned with situations
related to educational or training contexts. The third section is a conversation between up to
four people and the fourth section is a monologue.
A variety of question types is used, including: multiple choice, matching, plan/map/
diagram labelling, form completion, note completion, table completion, fl ow- chart completion,
summary completion, sentence completion, short- answer questions.
Candidates hear the recording once only and answer the questions as they listen. Ten
minutes are allowed at the end for candidates to transfer their answers to the answer sheet.
Academic Reading
This test consists of three sections with 40 questions. There are three texts, which are
taken from journals, books, magazines and newspapers. The texts are on topics of general
interest. At least one text contains detailed logical argument.
A variety of question types is used, including: multiple choice, identifying information (True/
False/Not Given), identifying writer’s views/claims (Yes/No/Not Given), matching information,
matching headings, matching features, matching sentence endings, sentence completion,
summary completion, note completion, table completion, fl ow-chart completion, diagram
label completion, short-answer questions.
General Training Reading
This test consists of three sections with 40 questions. The texts are taken from notices,
advertisements, leafl ets, newspapers, instruction manuals, books and magazines. The
fi rst section contains texts relevant to basic linguistic survival in English, with tasks mainly
concerned with providing factual information. The second section focuses on the work
context and involves texts of more complex language. The third section involves reading
more extended texts, with a more complex structure, but with the emphasis on descriptive
and instructive rather than argumentative texts.
A variety of question types is used, including: multiple choice, identifying information (True/
False/Not Given), identifying writer’s views/claims (Yes/No/Not Given), matching information,

Academic Writing
This test consists of two tasks. It is suggested that candidates spend about 20 minutes on
Task 1, which requires them to write at least 150 words, and 40 minutes on Task 2, which
requires them to write at least 250 words. Task 2 contributes twice as much as Task 1 to the
Writing score.
Task 1 requires candidates to look at a diagram or some data (graph, table or chart) and
to present the information in their own words. They are assessed on their ability to organise,
present and possibly compare data, describe the stages of a process, describe an object or
event, or explain how something works.
